Doesn't work. Or maybe I misunderstood... What's a "bun file"? There is no such thing in the files from your post. Maybe the "application.bin" file that is in the .zip archive? In the .zip there are also files "application.dat" and "manifest.json". And the .zip unpacks in a folder "I7Sp". Shall we unpack the .zip, or does the app do that? Shall we unpack the .rar, which unpacks in a folder "update", containing the .zip file and a file "rior.bin".

So, what files EXACTLY have to do into the Zeroner folder? Can anyone who did the update successfully explain how he did it EXACTLY? Any help is greatly appreciated.

well, for me it does disconnect easily, and for others here in the thread apparently too. Maybe there are different (hardware) builds of the watch, I don't know. For me it is often sufficient to shield the watch with the other arm, and it immediately disconnects.

that won't be a problem for me - although the moving icons are/were kind of cool, too.

I tried that, too. The properly installed Chinese app does not even start on my Android device - no way to use this for updating the firmware either. Reading the post of Teeh, who updated through the Chinese app and has now "lost" the heart rate monitor, I am now also afraid to update the firmware if it cannot be done with the English app...
[General Accessories] adibadro:
one at a time:

a typo bun->bin file. In the update.rar you have the bin file and the i7Sp.zip. the i7Sp.zip IS the update file. you DO NOT unpack that.

to RECAP: place the bin file and the i7Sp.zip in the Zeroner folder (capital Z). force close the app. start the app. go to the update section, tap to update.

the chinese app does not install on android 6.0.1 and up. it's good on lollipop, max.

since the bluetooth disconnects THAT easily... i think you have a hardware malfunction. as bluetooth LE (low energy) still has 3-5m of range. just veeeery low data transfer rates.

I liked the animated icons but not having them is ok too, as that eats less battery.
[General Accessories] adibadro:
go in the bracelet's settings and turn it on. it is off by default. ->longer battery had a scare myself right after the update when I looked at the graph, but it's a non-issue.
[General Accessories] frofa:
thanks so much for your help, I really appreciate it (although I still haven't been able to update the firmware...)

yes, there's a file "rior.bin" - you're talking about this one, not the file "application.bin" in the zip file, right?

ok.

ok, just to be extra sure: I then have the folder "Zeroner" with the rior.bin and the I7Sp.zip files in it. Nothing else, right? In an older version of that folder (I renamed it and let the app re-create a new one), there was also a folder "Cache" in the Zeroner folder, which was empty, but this wasn't re-created when the app restarted after renaming the old folder.

(that brings me to another, most probably unrelated question: where does the app save its data, as it is not in this folder??? Is there another folder somewhere? Maybe the app looks there for updates?)

done that - but the app still says "latest version" in the circle on top of the page, and gibberish text with some non-functional blue "click here" links below.

My device is on Lollipop 5.1, and the Chinese app does not even open. It shows an emtpy white screen, then sticks and crashes.

I don't think so, actually, as others here in the thread had also reported easy de-connection. It isn't a big deal really, if only the disconnect reminder switch worked.

That of course also depends on the antennas of the devices. Sure, it should have a range of 3-5m, and it actually does when the phone and the i7 have nothing between them but air. But the connection breaks down often by simply putting one arm over the other and thereby shielding the wristband. No big deal, as it usually re-connects quickly, but in some cases it does not and vibrates until I stop and restart Bluetooth on my phone. This sucks a lot of battery - that's the reason why I really want the "disconnect reminder" shut off.
[General Accessories] Kenif1983:
That update zip and bin aren't working for me either.
[General Accessories] adibadro:
what firmware do your smartbands have?

maybe i's specificfor the 1.0.1.0....

There's always the DFU mode. never failed in pushing the update... (even the eng app has a force DFU mode)
[General Accessories] frofa:
mine was delivered with firmware 1.0.2.0

I have seen that "DFU mode", but without any kind of instructions there is no way to use it. I can get the app to display "Scanning DFU device", but then nothing happens. Am I supposed to do anything on the device to make it "visible" to the app???
[General Accessories] adibadro:
well, then THIS is what you need to do:
[General Accessories] Kenif1983:
I got it working.

Neither English or Chinese app worked at first.

I deleted the zeroner folder, uninstalled both apps and reinstalled the Chinese app.

It then updated fine
[General Accessories] KenifJambo:
HR also not working here (despite being turned on on the watch)

Edit: HR is working but the app isn't giving a value on the front screen as usual
[General Accessories] Werner63:
I have the same problem here on an iOS device Zeroner health :(
[General Accessories] Teeh:
I think in my case can be resolved by updating the firmware again.

If i can downgrade or update firmware over again.

The measurement of the heart rate to be work again.. But a lot of problems right now, I can not downgrade or update firmware over again except to wait for a newer firmware released.

Anyone can downgrade the firmware or flash firmware again to tell me please

Thank you

I tried fw 1.0.3.6 on both the eng zeroner health 3.2.2 and chinese 3.6.6.14. Other than swipe right to see schedule, I can't see any changes. App HRM history still shows nothing. Exercising still doesn't count. Very disappointed.
[General Accessories] frofa:
Did this uninstallation delete your collected data? Or are they still available? I would not do this process "just" to get a new firmware (unless it brings some great new functionality, but in the present case I think it doesn't), if I lost all my data. Or is the data stored in the cloud? Does anyone know?

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:48 PM ----------

wow, thanks, that's quite a lot of tinkering to get the new firmware onto the device. If that's the only way it really works, I will pass this time and wait for the next release that maybe installs more easily.
[General Accessories] KenifJambo:
Uninstalling the app, lost my steps for that day yeah. Not sure about the rest of my data.

HR data is back showing on the app - must've needed a set of data before averaging it.
[General Accessories] massimoflea:
last fw its this?
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
Noticed frequent disconnect with new f/w 1.0.3.6. Actually, the bluetooth icon totally disappeared on the watch, neither connected nor discovering icons. Will always need to swipe left or right to get it back. Does anyone encounter the same problem? Used with both eng and chi zeroner health apps, both behaved the same.
[General Accessories] adibadro:
These are my settings and I never encountered the issues mentioned here.

As for HRM, make sure your smartband's setting looks like this

And that's it.

All notifications come through (I also have Macridroid for all the extra applications) and it looks like the battery will last for 5-ish days...
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
[MENTION=4537552]adibadro[/MENTION] Does your zeroner health app notifications reset to everything off if you lose connection and reconnect manually?
[General Accessories] adibadro:
No.

The only times it did so was when I'd forgotten to charge the bracelet and went to sleep with it 12-14 % after which it would turn off close to morning.

If you keep experiencing the "everything to off" I can only recommend the Macridroid app...
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
Does anyone know whether the chinese zeroner health app's gps tracking map can be changed to other countries? How do i do that if that's possible?

---------- Post added at 04:04 AM ---------- Previous post was at 04:02 AM ----------

I'll have another look at macridroid again. Didn't quite get it when i tested it out sometime ago. Thanks.
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
For some reason, my chinese zeroner health app 3.6.6.14 (and fw 1.0.3.6) is not pushing (or watch is not receiving) push notifications since today. Tried restarting both phone and watch multiple times. Icon on watch showed connected, same as in app.

I've found a new app from iwown, iwownfithttps://www.google.es/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=1&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0ahUKEwjS2P-C7OfMAhWDWxQKHW20AkMQFgggMAA&url=https%3A%2F%2Fitunes.apple.com%2Fes%2Fapp%2Fiwownfit%2Fid1107489114%3Fl%3Den%26mt%3D8&usg=AFQjCNHEei2NwIJnKUaHPuUpUqswvp4FAw&sig2=B96ny4OPeLQoT9cq61if8A

It seems to be the same Zeroner Health, but iwownfit has at least Spanish language. The app is 1.0.1 version, updated yesterday, 19/05/2016, but no firmware update provided.

I've switched to this new app. The Developer is "iwown", same as Zeroner Health chinese version, so I suppose it will have updates frequently.
[General Accessories] Culhoneiro:
I have just updated to 1.0.3.6 on iPhone with the Chinese app. Besides losing animations I also found that music and camera control are missing (not that I ever really used them). Also, ALL my notifications are popping up on the watch, just a little annoying :eek:. The HR display is indeed much faster now. Tomorrow I should recharge and test battery life. :D
[General Accessories] mismamente:
How do you update on iPhone? Wich app have you used?
[General Accessories] Kenif1983:
Since updating I've noticed that

- My steps count has dramatically increased.

- WhatsApp notifications now work.

On a side note, I've cracked my screen and not sure how long mine will last :(
[General Accessories] adibadro:
you could buy a phone screen protector and cut the shape out. you'll have a few tries available and don't forget to take into account the curves at the edge i.e. the screen protector should be smaller. this should give it a few more months.
[General Accessories] Culhoneiro:
I already had it installed.

After trying to update on an Android phone without success, I just opened the app downloaded using the QRcode on the first post of this topic and went straight to the update option.
[General Accessories] mismamente:
I thought I had done it, but I've tried again and ok! I have it updated.

My first impressions are very good :

- No more vibration on disconnect

- swiping left the schedule is shown(I hope they add support for phone's calendar)

- long press on message allows to delete it!

Edit one night after:

- sleep data is sent to my phone. It works fine

The app I'm using after the update is the one I mentioned before, iwownfit
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Thank you for infos. I have an iPhone too! Can you please explain me what app did you use for update on iOS? Iwownfit does not show the update? Do i need to install chinese app to update?

Thank you!
[General Accessories] mismamente:
Yes, you need to install the chinese app. Search in iTunes for iwown, and install the app with Chinese characters and the same icon as Zeroner Heath(or iwownfit). You don't need to uninstall iwownfit or Zeroner Health.

After you have installed the chinese version (I don't remember if you need to create another account for that, I don't remember very well, I think when I've received my watch, I installed both and they don't share account, but you can create the same account on both, it seems the chinese app use different servers than international version), you pair your chinese app with your watch WITHOUT unpairing with your previous versions, both version can be paired at the same time. Then, you can update.

After update, I unpaired with chinese version, I only want one version paired to send notifications and receive health data.

If you have any question please ask.
[General Accessories] kolich:
Hi guys,

How to make heart rate detected and displayed constantly? When I select heart detection screen it works for about a minute and resets to the main screen after it. If I start running that hear rate data is shown in the upper left corner but is updated very rare and constantly resets to 0.

Is there any way to show heart rate constantly?
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Thank you very much for the explanation. Today in the afternoon I will try as suggested to update with Chinese version! Did you uninstall the Chinese version after update? Or only unpair? Thank you again for sharing this useful infos!
[General Accessories] mismamente:
Only unpair, to be able to update again when a new firmware comes
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Thank you for your help! I was able to update, but I lost 1 hour to create that stupid Chinese account, cause it did not allow me to register and explanation of error was in Chinese language ?

At the end I logged in with a QQ account and was able to update. I confirm that bug of disconnection reminder is fixed. More impressions in next days of usage!

Thank you mismamente for your help!

Hello new kid with my i7

Hello everyone ,

I'm French so please excuse my english !!

I recently watch iwown i7 , I am relatively happy especially considering the price .

However I can not run a night mode and in the evening it appears to me "there is no scuddle " .

In the menu shows I do not have any icons .

I'm on Android with Huawei and I use the Zeroner Health application is in English :(

That if anyone can help me it would be cool
[General Accessories] adibadro:
pm pour française :)
[General Accessories] greg60890:
Salut adibadro que veut tu dire pour pm
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Ok, it's 2 days that I’m using the new firmware 1.0.3.6 and the new app "iWownFit" on my iphone 5s with Ios 9.3.2.

These are my considerations, hoping they will be useful for the forum!

REGARDING FIRMWARE:

There is no real big new feature, but a lot of bug fixes.

-Resolved the disconnection loop (in my case with old firmware), and the disconnection reminder always on. So finally no more vibration if option disabled!!!

-A rearrangement of order of the options in menu (useful in my opinion)

-No animated icons anymore (maybe to save battery)

-More speed of HR reading in manual mode (but first seconds of readings are in my opinion not correct)

-Support added for Gmail Inbox app notifications

-When a notification comes, to confirm the reading and make the little icon of message disappear, you need to touch the screen while message shows (with old firmware you simply needed to make the gesture with your wrist) ---> this is the only feature I don't like, i preferred the old behaviour, it was much more smart in my opinion.

- Press and hold message while showing text to delete it

- In the home screen swipe left to watch schedule

- No more midnight message "there is no schedule"

- Increased the step count (I have to verify if it's less or more accurate when I will go running, comparing with Runtastic)

REGARDING IWOWNFIT

Essentially the same app of Zeroner, but with a lot of bug fixes (I have to test it better in next days)

The first thing I noticed is that the speed of synchronize and refresh of the collected data has dramatically increased, with no more lag and lost data during some synchronization!

Really a good work, now watch seems to work very good and if there is some bug, is now negligible!

If someone finds some new feature that I have not yet discovered, please let us know!

Can someone take and post a video or photos of start and end positions for pull ups and push ups? I can't seem to get my watch to record anything under these 2 sports. .. and my form wasn't wrong.
[General Accessories] adibadro:
Just make sure you have the watch above the wrist, just like any other tracker. What I've noticed is that "it likes" for you to have an accelerated movement. If it's too smooth it won't record anything.
[General Accessories] adibadro:
That's for reiterating my review of the firmware and having one for the "new" iOS app.
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
Hi,

I had tried smooth, fast but numbers didn't change. I even shook and rotated my wrists, hands, shoulders (while standing) to get numbers to change but they remained at zero. hmm.. I don't have another activity tracker to compare though other than my wife's other i7 but both remained at zero.

erm.. above wrist as in nearer to hand?
[General Accessories] greg60890:
Hello everyone ,

I can not run a night mode !

Is what to do something special on the application or not?
[General Accessories] adibadro:
like in this: pic. only when exercising... I notice a max 2-3 pushups not being counted. but it's ok, this way I domore :P

official iwown app support issues

So I know I'm on the wrong forum, as I'm an iOS user, but searched the web and couldn't find an answer elsewhere and hoped the smart people here could assist:

I'm trying to get the iwown support to realize that the iOS version of zeronerhealth with the i7 watch won't let me switch the displayed units from metric to imperial.

I explained this to them and they blame the fact that 'some options not compatible with some devices'. WTH?

Anyone here know Chinese so they can explain the issue to them more clearly?

Even if the watch displays in metric the app could convert to imperial to display.

(Although I would prefer being able to have imperial on both)

Thanks!
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Yes I only wanted to share my personal impressions and add some info you did not provide about firmware bug fixes/small differences.

I think that every single post about a product that comes with no manual at all, is really precious!
[General Accessories] moviezzz:
Pretty sure that is exactly how I wear mine. hmm... :confused:
[General Accessories] adibadro:
this sounds strange, as on my wife's iPad it works to switch to imperial, but quite frankly.... apart from the US, who uses imperial any more? :P
[General Accessories] adibadro:
hmm :confused: indeed! I'd say you could reset it... but the closest thing is to let it drain the battery... hmmm.... :confused:
[General Accessories] borgybz:
Small update!

Yesterday I did a "FITNESS" session of 1 hour. So I added the "FITNESS" sport activity trough the app in the watch and started it from watch with play button:

the HR reading blocks itself during all the fitness activity. It showed all the time 88 BPM, so it's a bug! The green lights of sensor are on, but HR frequency not showing a dynamic value and not reading real time HR. So are the kcal not correctly calculated too....

Anyone can confirm?
[General Accessories] LukeMcS:
Hi :) I was trying the procedure you suggested, but I have an issue: in the instructions it says that in the app nRF Master Control I need to select "Application" and then choose the .hex file to upload. But in the two files you provided there is no such thing, there're only .bin files and a json one (application.bin, application.dat, manifest.json, rior.bin)

So what do I have to choose in this case? Distribution packet (ZIP) or upload something else?

I really don't want to mess up my I7 so better ask than be sorry :rolleyes:

Edit: Distribution packet is fine to use and updated the smartwatch. It was only painfully slow (full transfer in 1 hour). The smartwatch is now working much better than before :)
[General Accessories] frofa:
May I come back to this and ask where you got these files from? Is there any other source to get them, because I am unsuccessful with your's (even tried it from another android phone again) and would like to try files from a more official source - maybe there are slightly different files for different batches of the device, who knows?

Getting the Chinese version of the app is also something I tried, but it won't let me log in neither on my Zeroner account, nor with a QQ account (the app does not even react when I click on the QQ account login), so I don't get to the "inside" of the app to try do the update.
[General Accessories] mismamente:
The chinese app uses another Zeroner account. You need to register again with the chinese app.
[General Accessories] frofa:
Yes, I guess that's simple when you can read/understand chinese...

edit: I tried it "blindly", and I can get to screens to (I think) log in or register. Logging in does not work as said before, so I tried the other one which I think is "register". It takes me to a screen where I should type in three things. The first accept only numbers, and I think it asks for the phone number - which then it doesn't work because you cannot type in enough numbers - most probably it expects a Chinese phone number, which obviously is something I don't have. The second field also accepts numbers only, but has a different icon (a phone with what looks like a download arrow overlaid). I have no idea what to type in there. The third accepts letters, too, and it appears to expect my to define my password.

Anyway, there is no way to pass this screen. It won't allow me to log in or register. And - as I said - trying to log in with a QQ account just crashes the app.
[General Accessories] LukeMcS:
You should definitely try the procedure suggested before by adibadro (http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=64252303&postcount=2) it worked for me. Only thing that is different from the procedure that is explained there is that you have to select the zip (Distrubution packet) option while using nRF Master Control.
[General Accessories] frofa:
thanks. I went through that process and it worked. I needed several attempts to get the watch into DFU mode (so that the nRF master app showed the "DFU" button; if it is not in correct mode, nRF master does not show it, and the watch name is different, too), but once it did, the process completed quickly and without problems. Great, I now have the latest firmware on the watch - and the first great thing I noticed was that there where no more disturbing disconnect-reminders any more, GREAT! I lost my day's worth of counted steps, but all the other the other data are preserved. Looks good so far.

Question on the alarms/schedule alerts. Do yours work if connection is broken? Mine doesn't.
[General Accessories] mismamente:
I don't read/understand chinese, but I use other phone with Google Translator, and take photos of the screen and translate. But I don't remember how easy or difficult it was.
[General Accessories] frofa:
You mean, setting a schedule in the Zeroner Health app, and then getting reminded on the i7 even when the phone and i7 are not connected? No, I don't have that problem, the alerts work just fine (with vibration and displaying) with the new firmware 1.0.3.6 (I had not tried with the older 1.0.2.0, though).

---------- Post added at 10:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:02 AM ----------

At least for me it was impossible, because I don't have a Chinese phone number. Maybe you have one...?

But ok, the problem is now solved by using the DFU mode.
[General Accessories] massimoflea:
its arrived finally the clock, fw v1.0.2.0

it says there are no updates avaible, but i have no call/messages reminder .
